BL Mini Redhead Squrmy Wormy

As seen in all the magazines the controversial Squirmy Wormy is a new pattern that is already a big hit on both stillwaters and rivers. This version is tied with a single length of 'worm' on a size 14 grub hook - please note this is a barbless hook, not as shown, with a bloodworm red tungsten bead. This fly looks sure to outperform the highly successful Apps Bloodworm and similar patterns. It is tied using incredibly life-like squirmy wormy material (which started life as something called a 'Spaghetti Stress Ball') and is already a hugely successful pattern in the States. Selectafly were the first to make this fly widely available in the UK.

Finally, please note, the unique material used in the construction of this fly makes it reasonably fragile. This fly will not stand up to aggresive long casting and can be pulled off by fish. Many customers think this is a price worth paying because of this fly's amazing effectiveness, but if you're looking for a tough, highly durable fly the Squirmy may not be for you!

The Promise of a New SeasonFor me this early Spring time is a magical time of year. The whole season lies ahead of us and who knows what triumph and disappointment it might hold! And just in case you are thinking 'I could do without the disappointment bit' - remember the cautionary tale of the man who died and initially thought he had gone to heaven as he caught an endless procession of large trout...

"What can I say? I had a major panic when I suddenly realised I'd completely run out of fluorocarbon, which meant I wouldn't be able to go fishing over the Christmas break. With only 3 postal days left until Christmas, I knew there was only one online retailer that I could trust to get it to me on time. And not only did my fluorocarbon turn up the next day, but you also threw in a free fly! (the freebie caught 3 nice rainbows!) As ever amazing service "B.J. 22.12.18
